    The Effects of Commuting on Pilot Fatigue

    The Effects of Commuting on Pilot Fatigue
    Committee on the Effects of Commuting on Pilot Fatigue; Board on Human-Systems Integration; Division of Behavioral and Social Sciences and Education; Transportation Research Board; National Research Council

    This report discusses the policy, economic, and regulatory issues that affect pilot commuting, and outlines potential next steps, including recommendations for regulatory or administrative actions, or further research by the FAA. This issue reviews research and other information related to the prevalence and characteristics of commuting; to the science of sleep, fatigue, and circadian rhythms; to airline and regulatory oversight policies; and to pilot and airline practices.

    In summer 2010 the U.S. Congress directed the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to update the federal regulations that govern pilot flight and duty time, taking into account recent research related to sleep and fatigue. As part of their directive, Congress also instructed FAA to have the National Academy of Sciences conduct a study on the effects of commuting on pilot fatigue.
